Hi,

Haven’t tried this as I don’t appear to have too many Menu Extras, but, in VO 
Utility, under the Visuals pane, make sure that your VO Cursor is at its 
smallest.  The smaller it is, the more likely it will be able to locate smaller 
items.

Later...

menubar so it is as uncluttered as it can be, as I’ve often had times when I 
couldn’t see things I knew should be there, whichever way I tried to get to 
them.
